When the court had reserved its judgment, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta had clarified the Centre's stand that the credit shell facility could not be availed by travel agents who booked tickets during lockdown.
Centre had also submitted that government could not control contractual obligations between agents and passengers.

However, @DGCAIndia has clarified that any refund or credit shells valid for air tickets till March next year is applicable for the passengers & not the travel agents. Further any refund is only for flights originating in India and not for the ones abroad, even if Indian carriers
The intervenors had posed a question that if a person especially elderly does not want to travel even after March 2021, then in that case an option of immediate refund has to be given and no credit shell. Senior Adv Aryama Sundaram too had supported this. Court to hear today
